DynamicSloth posted:C'mon guys a global recession is a reason to celebrate, there is no greater abettor of anthropogenic climate change then number. Sure the Coronavirus is not enough, on its own, to hobble the engine of our destruction, the world economy, but with any luck it will, with a little help from an impromptu oil war, pop a few of the bubbles this end of the world party has been floating on the last few decades. Why would there be An oil war when prices are rockbottom?

Rime posted:Doomsday Economics thread in CSPAM seems to be the hot place to be so imma take my ball over there on this topic, rather than waste effort on making a new thread. Hopefully it doesn't get lost in all the surrounding the current collapse of Number. I can't keep up with that thread but it is interesting to see all the ways consumerism is getting kicked in the nuts. We should have some great data points in a few months.

Rime posted:Trans-Atlantic air travel effectively halting for a month is gonna be...a thing. If the way the global economy works now, is not the way it is going to work in the future...That means the fight for how it will work in the future is about to occur, and that things that seem impossible might not be shortly. But that doesn’t necessarily mean good things, it might mean we kill people at borders. It might mean the public decides eliminating emissions matters.

so is corona having a visible effect on carbon emissions outside china? Or is that still to come if at all? Obviously tourism-related sectors will have less transport emissions but the production increase in order to compensate for people's hoarding as well as the increased need for soaps and medical/hospital equipment might be negating that reduction?

Lmao at thinking that a capitalist system that's survived multiple world wars won't survive a year where everyone gets sick for a few weeks and the annual death rate gets a bit of a boost. No things aren't going to be exactly the same a year from now as they are now, but this isn't the end of neoliberal capitalism. I mean don't get me wrong it'd be sweet if it was, but nah. SSDD.

Those wars served to provide massive injections of cash and state funded technology to be used by capitalism.

Have you been reading the news? Governments are already using this pandemic as an excuse to provide massive injections of cash to capitalists in order to prop up this system. There is no limit to what world leaders will sacrifice in order to save Number.

How much hotter is 2020 expected to be versus 2019 due to Coronavirus? With with industry idling and cutbacks that would mean less particulates in the air reducing dimming, right?
